But at £25 it would have been twice the value for money ;-) Bye Frederik -- Frederik Ramm ## eMail [EMAIL PROTECTED] ## N49°00'09 E008°23'33 ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk

Hi, I can't help noticing that the registration fee has doubled from £25 last year to £50 this year (and that's comparing last year's normal price to this year's early bird). Err, I think you're mixing up your Euros and Pounds. Oops, maybe. So then it was £25 and now is EUR 50? That should be in line with inflation then ;-) Another note: The registration page says you'll need a Google account to sign up. While I do have a Google account, I think that I used a browser that knew nothing about it, and it still worked - so maybe the information is false and you can indeed sign up even without a Google account?
